Cairns Great Barrier Reef Tour Itinerary
This Great Barrier Reef Tour is a great way to see one of the world’s most fascinating destinations. On the spectacular Great Barrier Reef Tour experience a breathtaking coral reef in pristine blue waters that are teeming with colourful and unusual marine life.
Meet the tour at the Marlin Jetty or for a small price choose the optional pick-up/drop off service to start your unforgettable day. Boarding at 7:30 am you will be greeted with complimentary fruit platters, tea and coffee. At 8:00 am we start the cruise to the Outer Reef. Whilst on route, learn how to use snorkelling and dive equipment from the experts with a comprehensive equipment demonstration. You will arrive at your first Great Barrier Reef site, Hastings Reef, at approximately 10:30 am. Hastings Reef is a colourful coral reef filled with unusual and captivating marine life. Take advantage of the free use of snorkelling equipment to explore the reef or try one of our optional upgrades which include touring the reef on a glass-bottom boat, a certified dive or a beginner’s dive (no experience necessary).
After 2 hours of fun on the Great Barrier Reef, you will be sure to have worked up an appetite. Enjoy a delicious BBQ (with an assortment of salads) on the vessel before heading to the second reef site Breaking Patches. Breaking Patches is an area of shallow lagoons inhabited by many turtles. Once again you can explore the new reef site with the use of snorkelling equipment or choose to upgrade to a certified or beginners dive.
Returning home from the Reef is anything but boring, as you take in the spectacular views and even try some exhilarating Boom Netting.

Great Barrier Reef for Kids
The Great Barrier Reef is great for the whole family. This tour is perfect for children as it offers great value and optional extras that can be tailored to meet the needs and interests of adults and children alike. If your child is not overly confident in the water, then a glass-bottom boat tour of the reef is perfect. However, it would be worth getting them out into the water. Flotation devices are provided and the utmost care and safety are taken at all times. Our friendly crew are always there to help non-confident swimmers.
